Chapter 5

Audrey: ( she is in a very dim lit place) (to herself) HA! They will never find me here.

(We hear footsteps get closer, and then the they are right next to where Audrey is. They stop, and then they continue and start to fade.)

Audrey: (to herself) Whew! I wonder how Sasha is doing.

(Sasha is in a well lit place, that seems like a very comfy apartment. It has a few rooms, granted, they are quite small, but there is one, that appears to be the largest one, that has a couch, a chair, and a small TV with what looks like a futuristic DVD player, and there is a stereo on the other side of the room. The other two rooms are smaller, one seems to be a bathroom, while the other one is a kitchen with a fridge, a small table with 4 chairs, and a microwave. Sasha was sitting on the couch curled up by herself. "What am I going to do," she thought to herself. "Well, at least they will never find me here. She got up and walked to the fridge and gets a can of soda out and sits back on the couch. Then there is a knock and a voice.)

XJ5's voice: (worried tone) Sasha, it's just me. Come on, let me in.

( "What does he want," thought Sasha. She rolled her eyes and got up and went to what appeared to be a door. However, when she got to it, there was a control panel, and with a few buttons pressed, a door slid open, revealing a room, where about only two people could fit into. Sasha stepped in and pressed a button on another control panel, that was to the left of the door, and the door slid shut again, and we hear a motor running. In a few seconds, the door slides open again, and she steps into a dark, small room, and then goes to the wall, and opens a panel, that is really a peephole, to the domosphere. She looked out it, and all she saw, except for what was always in the domosphere, was XJ5. She pressed a few buttons on yet another control panel, and a door slid open to the domosphere. The weird thing was, where the slid open, was nothing, but what appeared to be a mere tree. Sasha and XJ5 stared at each other for a second, and then Sasha broke the silence.

Sasha: Well, come on and come in, before they look in here and find us.

(XJ5 followed Sasha into the room and the door slid shut, and there was the tree, with no trace of a secret room, but just a mere tree in the domosphere.)

(Sasha was on the couch again, with her soda, and XJ5 was standing by the chair, looking at her. This time it was XJ5 who broke the silence.)

XJ5: (worried tone) Sasha, are you ok?

Sasha: I'm fine!

(XJ5 obviously knew she was lying. He went over and sat by her, and put his arm around her. At first she stayed away from him, but then she leaned against him.)

Sasha: I can't believe them.

XJ5: I know sweetheart.

(They sat for a second in silence)

XJ5: You know, they are going to think something is wrong is wrong if we don't come back, or at least go somewhere where they can find us.

Sasha: (smiles) Well, if you want to hide, a secret hide out, that no one else knows about it always good.

(XJ5 gets up and starts toward the door.)

XJ5: Are you coming?

(She gets up and they go out the door.)

Audrey's voice: (yelling) Put me down!!

(Sheila is sitting in a chair in the study, and looks up. Greg walks in carrying Audrey, with Max right behind him. He takes her to a chair, sets her down, and he and Max block her from being able to get away.)

Greg: (with a sly grin.) Ok, you're down. Now hand it over.

Audrey: Fine!

(She tosses the keys into the air but Max quickly catches them.)

Max: Thank you. Audrey: (mocks him.) Alright. I gave them back. Now let me go!

Greg: Not so fast!

Audrey: What?!

Greg: Where's your partner?

Audrey: I don't know! And why would I tell you if I did?!

Greg: A likely excuse. (mocking her) I don't know where she's at.

Audrey: I don't! The last time I saw her, was when we went opposite ways to hide.

Greg: Aha!! And that's where we start looking.

(XJ5 and Sasha are walking down a hallway, side by side.)

Sasha: Ya know, we could just go back. And if they find us, we could just say we were both sick of it, so we just quit.

XJ5: That wouldn't convince them, and you know it.

Sasha: (shrugs) It was worth a shot.

(They walk a little further down the hall, to a door.)

Sasha: We might as well wait in the study for them.

Max: Did you just hear something?

Greg: I was about to ask the same thing.

Max: It sounded like Sasha and XJ5. Like they were right outside the door.

(The door opens, and XJ5 and Sasha walk in.)

Greg: (with a big smile) Good job XJ5! You got her.

Sasha: (some what insulted) Pfft! Yeah right! He didn't catch me. We were both done, so we called a truce.

Greg: (sly grin) Well, you may have called a truce with XJ5, but you didn't with me. (gets in an attacking position)

Sasha: (also sly grin) (mockingly) Is that a challenge? (crouches to the floor, with her right hand on the floor.)

Sheila: Now stop fighting you two.

Greg: Oh, we're not fighting. I'm just going to catch her too.

Sasha: I'd like to see you try.

(Greg jumps at Sasha, but she jumps on her hands, and springs off the ground, flipping over Greg, and lands behind him, in the same position she was in before she jumped, facing him. She slowly rises and stands there looking at Greg for a second.)

Greg: Not a bad move. But you'll have to do much more than that to beat me.

(Greg jumps at her, and she stands there and waits until the last second, and then steps out of his was, and puts her foot out, and before he can stop, or jump, he trips and falls. Sasha goes and stands over him.)

Audrey: HA! We got you now! ( she jumps on his back.)

Greg: (sitting up on his arm) Ok. You won.

Sasha: (sly grin) Brain over brawn always wins.

Greg: (sits up and puts Audrey on his shoulders.) You are a pretty good fighter, you know that, don't you?

Sasha: I've learned from some of the best.

Greg: (he smiles at her, and then gets up and slides Audrey off his shoulders, and sets her on the floor.) One of them must be your mother. (Sasha rolled her eyes and Sheila blushed slightly.) Well, now that that is finished, Max and I need to get going.

Sheila: We'll walk you to the teleporter.

(Sasha rolled her eyes again, as Greg and Sheila went through the door. Audrey and Max followed them. Sasha started for another door, but XJ5 grabbed her, and turned her around.)

XJ5: The teleporter is this way.. Remember?

Sasha: Oh, I know, I was just going to..

XJ5: (cutting her off) Oh, just come on!

(They walk out the door that the others left through.)

(Greg and Max are standing on the teleporter.)

Sheila: Thanks again Greg.

Greg: It was my pleasure.

Sheila: (turning to XJ5, Audrey, and Sasha.) Are you three going to say good bye?

Audrey: (flatly) Bye Max. (Now in a more cheerful tone.) See ya later Greg.

XJ5: Well, good night Greg, and Max,. or rather good morning.

(XJ5 nudges Sasha)

Sasha: (in a less friendly tone than normal, and quickly) Bye Greg. (she puts on a sly grin and is quiet for a second.)

Max: (slightly offended) Don't I get a goodbye?!

Sasha: (now smiling) Goodbye Maxy Million!

(Max rolled his eyes)

Max: Good bye Sasha. Goodbye everyone. We'll see you later.

Greg: And not too much later either. Goodbye. (to Max) Let's go.
